It’s an unforgettable experience that fosters a deeper appreciation for Alaska’s wildlife.

• Portage Glacier - Make a brief stop in Portage Valley to see several hanging glaciers that once extended the entire length of the 14-mile valley. Portage Glacier has receded approximately 2.5 miles, leaving behind a dead lake. The glacial remnants seen today include Explorer, Middle, Byron, Burns, and Shakespeare glaciers. While still massive, these glaciers are smaller reminders of the immense ice sheets that once covered this landscape. Next, take a walk through the rainforest, then enjoy your ride back to Chugach State Park and marvel at the stunning views of Turnagain Arm.
